Spatial Relationship Between Climatic Elements and Wheat Productivity in Koya District

Abstract

This study aims to show the effect of climate on wheat cultivation in Koya district, the relationship between the climate requirements of the study crop and climate elements in terms of (temperature, rainfall, relative humidity and evaporation), we adopt the quantitative approach in processing and analyzing data by using (SPSS) to find the relationship between climate elements and wheat productivity, and the crop approach, The importance of the study is the lack of a relationship between wheat production and climatic elements. The research was divided into four axes (the development of wheat cultivation in Koya district, the climatic requirements for the wheat crop, the climate of Koya district, the climatic potential available for wheat productivity). It reached several results: Wheat crop ranked first in terms of cultivated areas, which averaged (74216.65) dunums, which constitutes (56.38%) of the total cultivated lands for the winter planting season and constitutes (9.04%) of the study area. Climatic elements have clear effects on the growth and production of wheat crops, more collectively than individually, as the correlation coefficient value reached (0.99). There is a strong relationship. These four variables were able to explain about 98% of the factors affecting productivity, and the rest depends on other factors. The study came up with proposals, the most important of which is establishing climate stations in important agricultural areas such as Taq Taq district, Shorsh district, and mountainous areas (Hebat Sultan and Bawaji).
